Neurology . 2010 Apr; 74(22):1768-75. PMID: 20427752
Objective: Epilepsy neurosurgery is a treatment option for children with refractory epilepsy. Our aim was to determine if outcomes improved over time. Methods: Pediatric epilepsy surgery patients operated in the...

Sales L, Velasco T, Funayama S, Ribeiro L, Andrade-Valenca L, Neder L, et al.
Braz J Med Biol Res . 2006 Aug; 39(10):1365-72. PMID: 16906314
We describe the relative frequency, clinical features, neuroimaging and pathological results, and outcome after pharmacological or surgical intervention for a series of pediatric patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) from...

Pereira L, Velasco T, Ceiki-Sakamoto A, De Carvalho D
Rev Neurol . 2006 Jul; 43(2):74-7. PMID: 16838253
Introduction: Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a pharmacological agent used to control epileptic syndromes. In refractory epilepsy patients, however, a second anticonvulsive drug such as lamotrigine (LTG) is often added. This association...
